What in the world did you expect? You came on an S2000 forum, went to the street encounters, and said "I don't think S2000s are as fast as you guys claim they are." Did you really think we'd sit here and agree with you? Did you expect us to welcome you to the board and say "Feel free to stop by and try to trash our cars anytime?" You're not very smart if you're surprised by the outcome of your post. You came here looking for trouble, and that's what you found. No one is going to respect you, you went about it all wrong...not matter what kind of car you drive.

We have stock time slips... more than 5, 13 sec passes were made by people on this site alone...than magazines say 13 sec passes... steph papadakis ran like a 20 something at one drag even when he lost a few gears.. does that mean his 8 second car isnt what its made out to be.. c'mon...

Uhmm...I came to this forum because I love the S2000. I HAVE NEVER TRASHED the S2000. Those who know me well know how much respect and love I have for the car. The fact that I think it may not be that fast doesn't mean it isn't a great car.

All I'm saying is that no one here is going to take "I'm beginning to think the S2000's straight line speed is overrated." well. It's a natural response. Everyone knows that if we went to a Civic forum and posted "I'm beginning to think the Civic's straight line speed is overrated." that we'd not only be flamed, but we'd see an obscenity ridden set of responses and lots of aLtErNaTiNg cApS.

At least here, when we dissagree with someone, we can say it without f*cking b*tching with every f*cking smart-*ss cuss word that we can come up with. I agree that you didn't directly insult anyone here, instead you insulted every S2000 owner with your blanket comment. Just should have been thought out a bit more before posting it.

I'm not afraid to race anyone, even for money.
Is this really coming from someone that drives a tuned grocery retriever?? Oh well...another great one for the kleefton collection It's pretty simple, the S2000 has 80 more hp than an SI....in case you didn't realize an 80 hp advantage translates to: no matter how bad an s2000 driver ****s up, if he's shifting at 7 grand through every gear, or even if he's comatose, you will still lose. So how is your car even close to an s2000 in straight line speed? Just keep on providin the hilarious quotables, cause that's about all any of your posts have ever amounted to. Does anyone else find this guy as humurous as I do?
